Thinking Spring....

I just need to see some flowers. Don't you? There is still plenty of snow on the ground, but more should melt today. I am praying it melts ever so quickly and runs the snow off the roof. You can get what is known as ice dams in the gutters and that can lead to big problems. The northern states usually have flashing under their roofing to prevent this. But most roofs in Indiana are not done that way. I think all roofs should be.
I am thinking of going to Horton's Spring  open house this Saturday. They will have more of those sweet pansys, that I bought last year. I just love them. I need to see those little flower faces.  Enjoy your day everyone.xoxo

    I'm unique, I guess. Because actually, I don't "long for" flowers.

    All I "long for", is this cold weather, to be gone. ,-)

    Pansies are good for a spot of color, and they endure cool temperatures. Good to have around.

    Enjoy your Thursday!

    Flowers bloom year round here in Houston! I am longing to see the flowers at home. Last month the Carolina Jasmine was blooming!

    Sending you warm vibes from Miami. Actually it is cold today. It was 50 degrees when my son went to the bus stop today but none of that snow stuff!

    I am so ready for some Spring flowers, Susie. I went out yesterday and bought some bright pink geraniums. They make me smile. Have fun at Hortons on Saturday- xo Diana

    My husband always says that any house north of Louisville should have Ice Guard two runs up which gives you 6' up, and then Titanium underlayment on the rest of the roof. Not too interesting a comment, but I've heard him say that so many times I had to throw it in!
